do not round your answer.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify relevant dimensions

The height of the box is 6 inches, and the height of each bottle is 5.75 inches.

Step2: Calculate the gap

To find the gap, we subtract the height of the bottle from the height of the box. So, the gap $= 6 - 5.75$.
$$6 - 5.75 = 0.25$$

Answer:

0.25
